Asturian is a Romance language spoken in northwestern Spain. To illustrate the vocabulary of Asturian, here are the days of the months along with the months in Spanish.
January xineru enero
February febreru febrero
March marzu marzo
April abril abril
May mayu mayo
June xunu junio
July xunetu julio
August agostu agosto
September setiembre septiembre
October ochobre octobre
November payares noviembre
December avientu diciembre
Notice that two months are very different, November and December. The word for April is identical in both languages. Spanish uses a word-final o in seven months, but Asturian uses word-final u.
